The more wonderful the means of communications, the more trivial, tawdy, or depressing its contents seemed to be."
— Arthur C. Clarke
Valtech and Ofgem have hosted the "Climate Emergency Hackathon" in London on Friday 31st January and Saturday 1st February 2020. The basis of this Hackathon was to get teams of data specialists and associated disciplines (Solution Architects, Business Analysts, Project Managers, UX and Developers) to determine a specific programme that will greatly reduce the CO2 production, in the United Kingdom, within five years. |
Ten teams were working on different solutions, using proprietary data from Ofgem, other sources from government websites, etc... Each team had complete freedom in deciding what aspects and technologies to pick up. Many fantastic ideas came up from all team members and the concept that prevailed in each one of them was presented to a board of judges composed of Valtech and Ofgem personnel. All teams gave very creative and productive presentations of their work that had to be completed in a short amount of time.
